The world of blogging is an interesting one.  You and I have access to celebrity bloggers in a way that we wish we had access to typical celebrities.  If you are a celeberity blogger, such as hugh, then there is someone else out there whose ideas influence yours.  Every now and then, I feel like posting something really personal (like relationships) on my little place here; but, then I remind myself of the purpose of this blog.  I put those in my written journal.

My point is that we feel as though we know the authors of our favorite blogs, but do we?  I’ve emailed several people whose blogs I follow.  Except for a few, their tones were completely different than the way they write.  Some were even kind of rude, but it’s hard to say they meant anything because emails don’t show tone.  No harm done…I’m sure they get tired of being emailed by every Tom, Dick and me.  I don’t really admire too many celebs; but one that I do is Jerry Seinfeld.  I’ve seen him twice on stage.  He always starts by saying, "Hey, it feels like we know each other doesn’t it?  Miss me?"  It may not be verbatim, but along the lines.  I feel like I know him.  I even know how to get in touch with him personally by mail, but I choose not to invade his privacy.  He’s right…I truly have no idea what he’s about.

I think it’s cool that we are able to have access to some of the great minds in our respective industries; but, it makes me wonder how many are really trying to assist others or just stroke their ego.  I kinda like a mix.
